Legal's mate in a nutshell

https://www.chess.com/c/2ndcXHPQ2

The link above will show what legal's mate is. But it's not exactly like legal's mate so here is the full version-

Black played a little different from how the position was shown but he lost with the same tactic. If someone plays Phillidor defence then this is a good mate to do!

great tactic

Thanks

Also people don't fall it these days

But you will still get an extra pawn and a lead in development if black declines the trap!

So it's a good position for you if black declines, or accepts! ( But if he accepts your position will be won)

They say that it is rare to see Legal's mate. I wonder why...

If Black has played Nc6 then you need to insert the move h3 before capturing on e5.

But worth a shot and you will still get a pawn if black doesn't fall for the trap!-

+1 point and an open position with nice development

Nice!

Thanks!
